Library of Virginia, Richmond, Virginia.
During the Civil War both the state government and the pro-Union Restored Government of Virginia, which was based first in
Wheeling and then in Alexandria, had auditors of public accounts.
This collection contains records concerning the funding of the Restored Government of Virginia's agencies (expenses of the
courts and General Assembly), the pay of its officers and employees (salaries of judges, commonwealth attorneys, civil employees),
and the collection of revenues. Also included are warrants for the Constitutional Convention held in Alexandria in 1864, and
various contingent funds.
